Summary

Roll up, roll up and scream if you want to go faster! This week Gyles and Susie take a spin on the carousel (or should that be merry-go-round) as they waltz their way through the general hoopla of fairgrounds and carnivals. They marvel at the ironic profession of the inventor of candy floss, they toss away the notion that coconuts are shy, and Gyles reminisces about his father’s attempts to knock an old woman out of her bed. Strap in, it’s going to be a rollercoaster of a ride. As always there are lots of your fabulous emails to answer so if you have a question for Gyles and Susie then fire it over to [email protected] and Bob’s your uncle. A Somethin’ Else production Susie’s trio: Merry-go-sorry - a mixture of joy and sadness Edacious - fond of eating Sesquipedalian - a word with too many syllables; or using too many long words Learn more about your ad choices.

1:13.4	Hello and welcome to this week's episode of Something Rhymes with Purple, which as most of you
1:19.6	know by now if you're a purple person, is a podcast about words, language, meeting famous
1:25.8	people not in my case, but in the case of my lovely co-presenter, Charles Brandrith. Hi, Charles.
1:32.2	Hello, I've got a really exciting name to drop this week.
1:35.7	Okay. That's fine. At some point in my life I will be able to drop a name or two.
1:40.6	You could... you just choose not to. I just drop them for the sake of dropping them,
1:45.0	because it's become one of the things that I do. You meet endless, hugely famous people.
1:50.4	Most of the famous people I meet were famous 50 years ago, and people haven't heard of them
1:55.3	anymore, so I'm reviving their fame by chatting about them on our podcast.
1:59.8	Excellent. As you know, Charles, I saw my parents for the first time in a very long time this week,
2:06.1	and the one question that they asked me to ask you was, where does Charles Brandrith get his
2:12.7	boating skills? Because they have been totally addicted to another programme that you do, which is
2:18.0	your canal boating series with Sheila Hancock. And as I've never seen it, apologies. I don't get
